Gun Descriptions

SIG Sauer P225

The SIG-Sauer P225 is a compact version of the "military" SIG-Sauer P220 pistol. It was developed for German police pistol trials of mid-seventies, and was subsequently approved for police use in FRG as P6 (Pistole 6). It is entirely similar in design and function to P220, and is widely used by numerous European police organizations, including certain Swiss and German police departments, as well as the Canadian army and even a few US police departments. The earliest versions of the P225 were equipped with a magazine release located at the bottom of the grip, but current production pistols have the magazine release button at the base of the trigger-guard. Production of original P220 pistols was completed in around 2010. However, in 2015 SIG-Sauer introduced an improved, more streamlined version of this gun, designated as SIG-Sauer P225-A1.

SIG Sauer P229

The P229 was the first pistol to be manufactured in Exeter, New Hampshire. Available in 9mm, .40 S&W and .357 SIG, the P229R is one of the most popular SIG SAUER pistols and carried by thousands of law enforcement professionals throughout the country. The compact size of the P229R makes it ideal for concealed carry. This new version has the new designed slide profle and ergonomic grip.   Trigger Pull DA 10.0 lbs   Trigger Pull SA 4.4 lbs   Sights SIGLITE Night Sights   Grips Black Polymer Factory Grips   Frame Finish Black Hard Anodized   Slide Finish Nitron   Accessory Rail Yes
